Why Skyrim is still an awesome game

"Three years later and Skyrim is still kicking video game arse! After reaching the sales milestone of 20 million copies, Skyrim is still going. It is one of the best games Bethesda have ever released and will go down in history for it’s epic setting, timeless graphics and in-depth immersion" states Thomas Chambers as he explains his love of this classic title.

Its still one of the most played games on Steam and its entirely due to mods. Modded Skyrim is a different game not only in the playability department, even graphics wise it can give next gen games a run for their money.

i love my Skyrim, and i think Dragon Age Inquisiton will be a beast of game too. Not sure about Witcher 3, but i think RPGs like Skyrim, are the best games your money can buy... 3 years and you can still enjoy the game.

Lol so true, I spent the whole week figuring out mod incompatibilities and also cleaning dirty mods. The end result though made my game experience with Skyrim a lot more enjoyable compared to when I first played it without mods a couple of years ago. Right now I've got 56 mods running well and plan to add more in a few days.

Seriously though. It took me about 2 days to download, unpack and recombine a 20GB pack with over 260 different texture/mesh/parallax mods then install and sort them along with about 50 other non visual mods. I'v put in over 600 hours of actual gameplay so far and i still haven't made it through all the content.

other than that,most of critism are because of the combat....even some people claim it most worst combat mechanic they even play...in someway,it was pretty true,especially after played rpg with better combat like dragon dogma

also,another critism were due to the quest that too generic and repetitive

Different studios and I enjoyed ESO for what it was (for a couple months) but I would still prefer more familiar single player ES games.

I think Bethesda could branch out a little and add either a standalone coop friendly game/mode but should basically stick to their strengths. I still think of how cool two worlds could had been as a coop open world fantasy game has so much potential (even if game "world" was broken in parts in its case.

New Fallout for sure. Im just surprised Bethesda hasn't hopped on the Re-release bandwagon. Maybe they will, who knows? Just for all the issues the game had on PS3, mostly blamed on hardware issues, im surprised they wouldn't do it. And why are people disagreeing with my post? I asked a question and was looking for rational replies? Kind of like your own.

Correct. If they are thinking of a remake, Morrowind is the game to do it with. That game with just improved graphics and frame rate, would murder any RPG out there. They may need some voice acting for these spoiled brats too. But I would pay full price as is will all expansions

Skyrim has the worst combat system/gameplay i have ever played. The gameplay has nothing technical about it . All the weapons have the same swinging animation. There's no real depth or strategy to it. The combat in Elder Scrolls games has always been a major drawback and I find it incredible that the developers haven't done very much to make it any better. Fighting in Skyrim is incredibly simplistic. For a game intended to be an action-RPG, the combat is one of its biggest flaws.﻿

No one has to flame me, for I know already why it can't happen. But I think it would be cool to have some sort of modding ability for the console systems. Maybe a an add on of sorts for the tool pallet. Then the creation could be loaded up to a central server for others to dl.

Also, fyi. The only games I've ever played on PC were 2nd life and republic commandos...oh, and battle front 2. So forgive me on my lack of knowledge.

And yes. The elderscrolls series (and fallout for that matter) are some of the best...If not the best games that money can buy. Not to many games can offer that kind of longevity without repetitive game play.

Just wondering. Why would someone disagree with the consoles having a modding ability? If your a PC user. Then you shouldn't care. If you own a console, why wouldn't you want one of the coolest aspects the PC users get?

Sometimes there are just some of the most retarded people on these discussion board. Giving no rhyme nor reason for their trolling.
